This is my one and only hunting rifle, my grandpa's 03-A3. He was not issued this; he was a Navy medic during WWII and he bought this from the military before being discharged. He used it once or twice to hunt deer and would take it to the range sometimes but otherwise it sat in a closet for over forty years. My grandpa passed away and my uncle got it. My uncle isn't into hunting or shooting and had no use for it, so when I became obsessed with big game hunting he happily handed it down to me. I have brought it up to hunting specs with the additions of a strap, era-appropriate cheek rest, recoil pad, scope mount, and Nikon camo scope. Nothing was drilled for the scope mount so I easily bring it back to original specs anytime I want. I also got a bayonet and bayonet mount but can't for the life of me get the front sight small pin out, so the bayonet will have to wait for the time being. Here she is:
